Flipped back and forth between shows tonight. It’s amazing how much better AEW looks from a production standpoint. And their commentary is superior too.

I have watched this week yet (probably tomorrow), but I agree the last couple shows have struggled... they need better direction. I think they may just have too much going on, so they can't focus on anything.
They have some interesting stuff going on, but it gets lost from week to week to make sure everyone gets time. No Darby the last couple weeks.... they're drawing out the FTR thing WAY too much... they do a big feature on Scorpio Sky, then where is he? How about Shaun Spears push? Or Lance Hoyt? And why focus so much on Orange Cassidy, NOW, where his strength (playing to the smart marks that come to the shows) is not in play?
I'm hoping some of the weird inconsistency is COVID related, and perhaps when the whole roster is free to attend all the time it'll be better.
Instead, we get a angle with QT Marshall being distracted by his girlfriend? Jack Hager no showing a press conference? Why? I like them using the old guys a bit, but do we really need Arn Anderson to play Bill Belichick?

Best thing was Shida v Penelope Ford in my opinion .
Where has Riho gone ?
But Taz promos are AWFUL . In a age when MOST things that happen , end up on social media . Why say all that crap about Mox ? When everyone knows he has corona . Makes Taz look stupid .

But if you listened to Taz's promo, Mox got tested twice with both being negative. So if Taz is to be believed, Moxley didn't have it.

What Magnum said, Mox has been tested twice and has been negative. His wife has it, doesnt mean he has it.
And Riho is hopefully gone. Build Shida she should have been the first and only champion.

Why does he need outside interference from 2 people to beat a WWE mid carder with a 38% career win percentage? I’m a Jack Swagger fan, but Cody shouldn’t need help from 2 buddies to beat him, especially if he’s supposed to be drawing cheers.

I gotta go with Swarm here ... a face with a manager let alone two seems wrong. And he’s also right Jack Swagger really needs to get built up, I didn’t think he was gonna win either of his recent title matches. AEW has pieces but there’s too many cooks in the kitchen in many aspects including the announcers booth (get rid of Excalibur, he throws off the Tony and JR dynamic).
Make JR head of talent and announcer only on pay per views. Put Excalibur and Taz on dark and then tony and Jericho on dynamite. The tnt title should be a tv title and have a ten minute time limit. Cody and Hager go to a ten minute time limit and that way both look good.
I don’t get the Young Bucks either, there okay but not really that impressive in the ring.
Again they have pieces but if you don’t know how to play chess having the pieces doesn’t matter in the long run ...

I just haven't really enjoyed AEW. I was somewhat pissed, however, that Best Friends didn't beat Omega/Page.

Mox maybe he is negative from corona . But in UK ANYONE in your household got corona . The whole of that household has to self isolate , just to be safe for two weeks . So people know what Mox is doing surely ? .
I wasn't mad on Riho neither , just wondered where she had gone ? . I agree Shida or Kris Statlander are better .
I am NOT a orange Cassidy fan at ALL , just don't get it . One silly move and he usually wins . But saying that I am interested/curious to see what happens next week v Jericho .
